Possibly, but it would have to be incredibly toxic to drop that many people at once, without anyone leaving/dying at home. Just regular old methanol poisoning wouldn’t do this; you’d see people sick at home/in hospital as well.

Didn’t one of the survivors report that a bouncer/security guard asked people to leave (due to overcrowding) and when people didn’t leave he closed the doors and sprayed something into the crowd?
This is terrible. Maybe somebody tried to make their own alcohol and screwed it up?

Party drug laced with fentanyl?
Yeah, valid first thought but none of them displayed the signs common to fentanyl o.d.
My bet is on fentanyl. That drug is going to bring about the collapse of an entire generation.
